About ArtistAnd

My Story

Hi, I'm China, and I'm the founder of ArtistAnd. A small art business built on the love of art, the exclusive of the adverage person, and a passion to try and make art accssible, inclusive, and most of all... fun! Growing up, I found art to be a safe place, where I could relax, unwind from the day, and make something I was proud of. Id didn't have to be perfect, but I just had to make something. I started this business in 2019 after falling out of love with the gallery business, and seeing how people felt like they didn't belong. don't believe you're either “good at art” or you're not. I've spent years teaching complete beginners and I've seen what happens when someone is finally shown HOW to draw or paint.

Being an artist myself, and knowing firsthand the wellbeing benefits of practising it, I know how important art is for society and also, how everyone has the potential to learn how to draw!

​

ArtistAnd survived lockdown improved people's lives through community and creativity and is continuing to grow and make art as accessible as possible.

I've taught everyone from complete beginners to corporate teams at companies including Google, IKEA, Harrods and Monzo.


 

China Jordan

Originally from Grimsby, I studied Fine Art: Painting at Wimbledon and I'm now a successful commissioned Artist and tutor. I've studied with various grandmasters and now I'm successful at copying anything using pencil, oil paint, watercolour and pastel.

 

I specialise in classical realism and portraiture and now teach in various locations as well as online. My previous roles include managing prestigious art galleries in Mayfair and overseeing the installation of artwork across the globe. Now, it's my mission to focus on using Art for improving wellbeings outside of the Gallery environment.

 

With a proven strong connection between mental wellbeing and art, there is no better time to make this art form as accessible as possible.
